Turkish champions Bursaspor have signed USA and Villarreal striker Jozy Altidore on loan until the end of the season.
Bursa snapped up Rangers striker Kenny Miller earlier in the window, and have now added the former Hull City man to their ranks, as they look to win a second consecutive Super Lig title.
Altidore has already gained 32 official caps for the USA at just 21 years old, and has long been regarded as the next big thing for the national side, though he has been less impressive in Spain.
Altidore joins a long list of big names to move to Turkey in the window, along with Simao, Miller and Hugo Almeida to name a few, as the Turkish league appears to be gaining momentum to establish itself as a major power in Europe.

What is is with Chelsea these days - they never seem to give youth a chance? Yes we have youngsters like McEachran and Kalou coming through slowly, but when are we goping to replace the 30-somthings - the likes of Cole, Carvalho, Ballack, Malouda, Bosingwa and Ferreira???

Are Barry and Given some of the most under-rated footballers ever? If they werer playing at Man Utd instead of City then they would be getting comapred to the Ronaldo's of this world. As it is, its like they play Soccer like a bunch of donkeys. Add Friedel to the under-rated list too!
